that debate was 70 minutes on foreign policy. if you match that with most americans, if that is not whose last three of their concerns, we have not talked about poverty or immigration. we have not talked about gay marriage, sensitive social issues. i have no idea what is going on in the heads of voters. moderating this third debate, she gets to call the questions from the audience and she gets to choose who gets to speak. i am sure she will be focused on some issues that have not been aired in the first two. poverty is incredibly important, incredibly important to you. i think that both candidates know which ones have not asked. there are probably pretty well prepared answer those questions. some of those issues are not being raised on the campaign trail. tavis: to the issue of new york magazine, it is a wonderful cover that lays out a variety of issues. you get top billing and a wonderful piece about the clintons. i was anxious to get to it because everybody knows that bill did his thing at the democratic convention. he is back

the foreign policy thing. a wide range of reactions to the foreign policy speech that mitt romney gave yesterday. madeleine albright did not have much of anything to say -- plenty to say about it but didn't grade it to be a-level work let's hear what she had to say on a conference call yesterday -- i think we have that. >> probably a speech that to those that are not totally into foreign policy sounds pretty good, but i think it is really full of platitudes and free of substance. some of the facts, though, are just dead wrong. >> so, madeleine albright not exactly saying this was the greatest foreign policy speech ever. do you think voters -- what did you make of it and do you think voters are paying attention to foreign policy? >> i think they're starting to. i think they're going to certainly in the next -- the next debate at the end of the month. i think that it was -- lacking in nuance and that's a real problem because the world is very nuanced. we've moved from a kind of simplistic u.s. is the sort of sou

a president is not a foreign policy expert, end of quote. in my view, the last thing we need is a president who believes that he can subcontract our foreign policy to experts at the state department or, for that matter, any other department or agency. that kind of thinking may work for a ceo, but i assure you it will not and cannot work for a president, and it will not work for a commander in chief. >> the romney campaign surely will point out that senator obama in 2008 had very little foreign policy experience himself. the vice president highlighted the administration's successes overseas, including of course the mission to kill osama bin laden and aalso an ending of the war in iraq. vice president biden turned his attention to iran, accusing romney of loose talk about another potential conflict. >> president obama has said, and i quote -- now is the time to let our increased pressure sink in and to sustain the broad international coalition we've built. now is the time to heed the timeless advice from teddy roosevelt, speak softly and carry
